Did you ever wonder why Rick Grimes didn't look at the bunny slippers girl in the first episode of "The Walking Dead" and say, "Oh weird, looks like a zombie apocalypse happened"? Or why the survivors on the show call the creatures "walkers" instead of "zombies" in the first place?
你還記得在《行尸走肉》第一集,Rick Grimes看到那個(gè)抱著兔子的行尸小女孩居然沒有說:“這個(gè)妹子看著怎么像是喪尸爆發(fā)了”?還有劇里的小伙伴們?cè)趺礇]叫那些小伙伴們喪尸,而叫行尸?

At a Television Academy event for Season 5, comic book creator Robert Kirkman finally set the record straight.
在美國國家電視獎(jiǎng)上,漫畫書作者終于跟大家坦白原因了。

"We decided very early on that there's a lot zombie fiction out there, there's a lot of zombie movies, and that leads to a lot of questions," he says. "Why are these characters never going 'Oh yeah, you gotta shoot them in the head, because I saw that on "Night of the Living Dead"'?"
“我們很早就決定了,我們不走普通的科幻喪尸劇路線,因?yàn)樵诖酥耙呀?jīng)有很多喪尸電影了,這也留下了很多問題,”他說?!皠±锏慕巧珎兘^對(duì)不會(huì)說:‘哎呀,我要爆他的頭,因?yàn)槲铱催^《Night of the Living Dead》’?”
